Gaza Is Set To Torpedo Joe Biden's Claim To A Human Rights Legacy
The president promised he would champion values like universal rights and the dignity of every person. Then the Israel-Hamas war began.
You're viewing part of a thread.
you can oppose the existence of a state without opposing the existence of the people ruled by that state.
I know y'all Liberals hate ethno-states and all, but good luck setting up a liberal democracy in that region lol.
Israel doesn't particularly care for the Palestinians and that is definitely a problem. But letting the other regional powers (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Palestine, Syrians) take over would cause a complete slaughter of Israelis and Jewish people immediately. I guarantee it.
Anyone who disagrees with me is hugely ignorant of the history of that region.
What makes this whole situation so problematic is that Genocide is normal in that region. Kurds we're probably going to be wiped out if it weren't for our involvement in Iraq for example.
Based on our best knowledge of the people who live there, Israel is likely the best leaders of that plot of land.
Not Bibi though. Hopefully Israel can get a better minister. But they are the closest to democracy that we are gonna get there.
baby, i'm an anarchist. liberal democracies are breeding grounds for fascism.
And the Saudis are a monarchy. So methinks you don't like that either.
And presumably you don't like Fascism either. So whatever, if you don't got a realistic proposal then I guess you can go yell at clouds or something?
No wait, Anarchist? So you think me acting in my best interests is best? So you think I should take up a job at a weapons manufacturer, then encourage this war to keep happening and then profit from it? And your political slant prevents you from doing anything to stop me from doing that?
what makes you think anarchists would stand by while capitalists profit from war?
Guns, mostly.
What makes you think that the weapon manufacturers would sell anarchists useful weapons if you're against them?
anarchists are renowned for sabotage and creative resistance tactics.
And the FBI is renowned for imprisoning traitors. So talking about this on the open internet is likely a dumbass move if you're actually serious.
Which is why I'm calling your bluff. If you're serious about this, you wouldn't have told me about it.
it's hilarious you're threatening to call the cops because I oppose settler colonialism
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you were just now threatening to sabotage weapon shipments to Israel, were you not?
Or were you just bluffing? But yes, opposing the foreign policy goals of our country through the use of sabotage is a traitorous act and calling the cops on this would be the appropriate thing to do.
As I said. I know you're bluffing. I'm just seeing how far you've thought about this issue. And as expected, you haven't thought it through at all.
So whatever, if you don’t got a realistic proposal then I guess you can go yell at clouds or something?
i'm trying to organize against oppression, but, yea, it does feel like yelling at clouds most days.
And presumably you don’t like Fascism either.
right
capitalism is not a just hierarchy, either.
And the Saudis are a monarchy. So methinks you don’t like that either.
right.
